Well I've decided that I'm not all pursed out yet! In fact, sometimes you get on a role and you just have to keep going so this is another little purse which I had hand sewn and patched on a recent trip away and decided to put it together using some beautiful sari ribbon which I purchased recently. I used the red sari ribbon to bind it all together after machining it up. It looks a bit chrissmassy doesn't it! but I didn't intend it for that at all really.

Actually I have made two pieces similar so I shall make the other also into a similar purse - is that a good idea?

I've used some stamped velvet, rusted silk, a piece of vintage fabric from Rhajisthan, braid and sari fabric.

Thought I might also share this collaged diary cover I have just completed as another gift for a friend.

I seem to have lots of Birthday gifts to make lately

all at Christmas time - that's life!

This has been made from a collection of vintage fabrics, dupion silk, lace and velvet in shades of gold and purple

Suzy, all gorgeous! And the reds! So festive and rich and elegant! I had to click on your pics for a closer look at all of the wonderful details.How's the weather Down Under? It's 19 degrees here, getting even colder tonight with a biting wind and, hopefully.....SNOW * * *Hugs, Diane

You never cease to amaze me. Your pures are amazing. The littlest details are so lovely in your work! Everything you create is unique and beautiful. I can't say it often enough - you are the fabric queen!

Thanks for stopping by my blog and becoming a follower; I am appreciative of your comments regarding my work. I can't beleive you are from Wales! My mom, who recently passed away, is Welsh! Love you journal covers--they're awesome!

OH!!! One more thing!! I just noticed that you, unlike me, were able to get the Fiber ARTs Badge and apply it to your site. I have tried and tried and the site will not allow me to right click and "save as," or follow the url provided...I'm frustrated because I would like this badge on my blog too. How did you do it?

I just noticed the quote on your blog about life's most beautiful things being not seen with the eyes but felt with the heart - lovely quote, but it struck me that you have LOTS of heart which is quite evident in the work you do.

In case I don't get around to all of your blogs before Christmas I would just like to give you a Big Hug and say "Thank you" heaps to everyone who takes the time to leave me a comment - it is truely appreciated and also to wish you a most peaceful time at Christmas when you get some quiet time to remember why we are all doing this.Hugs, Suzy

Creating for me is essential! It feeds my heart and soul. It is a large part of who I am.
I have a passion for vintage fabrics, silks, velvets, laces and embellishments inc. jewellery which I incorporate into my collages for journals etc.
My love also of antiques, time worn treasures - all things tarnished, tattered and pre-loved goes hand in hand with my creativity but above all I try to live a simple self-sufficient rural life style with my husband inspired by the natural beauty that surrounds us here.
